    Default Finding out about Dad and Uncle from P&O

    Hi all. I found this site and wonder whether I can start to find out about my father and uncle's service with P&O from WW2 onwards.
    My father, Basil Malcolm Willson, left us in the mid 50's and I lost touch with him but know that he died, I think, in the late 70's. My recollection is that he was a Senior Leading Hand in charge of the bars on ships such as Chusan, Arcadia and Canberra.
    My unclle, Brice Annal, was an Engineer - and may have been Chief Engineer - of P&O and died in the late 70's early 80's. When I met someone who had also been with the compnay, he said that Bruce was the one that they sent all over the worl dif a ship needed fixing and no-one else locally, could do it!
    Any information on either of them would be gratefully received.
